Edgework

Non-Polished Profiles

Seamed Edge– This edge is done with a hand grinder or upright belt sander. Really this is more of a safety precaution than edgework.  Seamed edges are the least expensive however they are not really for decorative use.  We will not sell cut glass, all glass that leaves our shop must be seamed.

Ground Edge– This is a step up from the seam, done on a machine, given a flat ground edge.  Any of our polished profiles can be done in a ground edge.

Beveled Edge – A Bevel is an angle on the top of the glass around the perimeter.  It can be done on glass from 1/8 to 3/4 inch thick.  The bevel range is up to 1-1/2 inches wide.  Most any shape can be beveled, for details regarding special shapes, please contact us.
